The main problem with running double Aux2Bat on an escort (and especially a Tacscort when you have Tac Initiative) is that you're going to run out of unique Tac skills and end up running copies (the bane of A2B). So double TT is kinda useless, for example.

That said, A2B with trannies is almost interesting.

I've run into issues with AtB because of the triggered cooldowns on certain abilities. Where X triggers a CD on Y - X will be available again before Y is (and Y before X, if you use Y first), because the triggered CD is not affected by the recharge buff from the Tech DOFFs...

I just checked a bunch of deets on the saber vs. steamrunner. For a loss of one turn point and one tier 2 sci ability you are getting: an extra tier 2 eng ability, 2-3% more shields, almost 4 thousand hp, an extra eng console, and +150 crew.

Fixed faulty information, the Saber and Steamrunner have the same consoles.

The Somraw, K'tinga, D'Kyr, D7, Kumari, Xindi carrier, Xindi escort, and the T'Varo are all older than the Constitution Refit and yet they are tier 5. The Constellation is made up primarily of Connie refit parts and it is tier 5, there is no logical reason whatsoever for the no tier 5/6 connie rule.
